Makeup and outfit of the night

Tonight I went for a meal with my sister and my niece so I thought I'd do a post on my makeup and outfit
I'm wearing the nude dress from forever 21 that I got last weekend when I went Trafford centre I showed it in my previous blog post.

For makeup I wore:
-mac studio sculpt foundation with zoeva  silk finish brush
-mac studio fix powder with real techniques blush brush 
-kevyn accoin tropical nights bronzer also with RT brush 
-nars blush torrid also with RT brush
-mac smoulder eyeliner
-maybelline colour tattoo 24hr 'on and on bronze' I put that on my eyelids with my fingers and also smudged out my eyeliner wich made my eyeshadow look darker
-naked 2 palette I used booty call in my inner corners and tease in the crease and my lash line and I just used the brush that came with the palette 
-loreal miss manga mascara
-ardell lashes Demi wispies
Then more mascara to blend in with my real lashes
-no7 nude lip liner
-mac lipstick kinda sexy
-hourglass diffused light powder to finish my makeup and used the real techniques blush brush again.
I wore my black blazer over the top.
And some black ankle boots

Fake bake faux glo instant wash off tan

Fake bake faux glo instant wash off tan

I bought this tan because I love the fake bake airbrush tanning spray but I wanted one that was just an instant wash off tan for if I just want be tanned for a night out and be able to wash it off.

You just spray it on but it's not as flawless as the fake bake airbrush tan because with that you just spray it in and you look flawless and tanned and you don't even have to rub it in then after around 4 hours you wash it off and your left with a flawless tan, but this one washes off wich is why I chose this one but when you spray it on you may have to rub in some areas with gloves or a mitt but then it looks nice and it dries quickly.

Here the top picture is my right arm without the tan and the bottom pic is my left arm with the tan.
It is a nice instant tan and it doesn't transfer and when I washed my hands through out the day it didn't noticeably come off so it stayed on quite well and you just wash it off in the bath or shower with soap and water.

5 product face tag

5 product face tag 

Mac studio sculpt foundation, charlotte tilbury film star bronze and glow, hd brow kit, mac lipstick 'kinda sexy', loreal volume million lashes mascara.


The lighting isn't very good so I tried to take a couple pics in different lightings.

If I had to choose only 5 makeup products it would be foundation, brow kit, mascara, bronzer, lipstick.

I think I may have cheated because the charlotte tilbury film star bronze and glow is a bronzer and a highlighter but I thought it's probly aloud since it's in 1 compact.

-For foundation I chose mac studio sculpt because it's my only foundation that I don't feel I need a powder but it is still quite dewy but with out feeling like I need to set It so I love that and that was an easy choice.
-For my eyebrows I used the hd brow kit.
-For mascara I used loreal volume million lashes.
-for bronzer, highlight & eyeshadow I used the charlotte tilbury film star bronze and glow, used the highlight in the inner corner of my eyes and brow bone and the bronzer in my crease for a natural eye look.
-For my lips I used mac kinda sexy wich is a matte warm nude colour

If I had to choose just 3 makeup products it would be foundation, brow kit & mascara.

If I couldn't use the charlotte tilbury bronze and glow because it's like 2 products in 1 I'd choose bronzer over highlighter although I do really love the highlighter in that compact.

Barry m gelly nail paint coconut

Barry m gelly nail paint coconut



I must admit the name of this pushed me to get it 'coconut' and I love colours like this white or nudes, this is an almost white colour.
I love the gelly formula of these nail polishes there my favourite from barry m I also love lychee wich is a pale nude. They last really well, I'd say they last about a week before chipping.

I would deffinately repurchase this it's only £3.99 and I think the barry m gelly nail paints are truly amazing

Little haul

Yesterday I nipped to town because I wanted to try the bourjois healthy mix serum and I ended up picking up another couple of things aswel.
Bourjois healthy mix serum
Bourjois healthy balance powder
Marc jacobs leather makeup bag/clutch

Below pic (with flash)


I was in tkmax looking for a leather makeup bag because I decided I wanted one and I saw 2 I liked they were both black, one was similar style to this one flat, and the other one was smaller but a bit bulkier then I carried on looking and I spotted this and at first I wasn't sure if it was leather but I checked the label inside and it said 100% leather and I like how it kind of looks sparkly when it hits the light, it came in a box but I got rid of the box straight away so I could fit it in my bag, in the box it said $69 but it was only £20 wich is the same price as one of the makeup bags I was gonna get so I thought I may aswel get this one wilts it's marc jacobs and it fits lots of makeup in it aswel il probably be doing another whats in my makeup bag posts soon since iv started using quite a few different makeup products recently.

I tried these to products this morning and I love them both.
The healthy mix serum is light coverage but I think you could apply another layer to make it medium coverage if needed and it would still look natural, it's supposed to last 16 hours, I don't think it would last that long on me but iv had it on around 10 hours and to be fair it's lasted pretty well it's lasted a lot longer than the loreal lumi foundation because I find I have to reapply in certain areas after a few hours so I now prefer the bourjois one purely for the lasting power of it and it still looks nice and glowy like the loreal lumi foundation.

I also tried the bourjois healthy balance powder and I really like that too so far it's hard to tell in one day with powders, it reminds me of the chanel les beiges but of say the bourjois has a bit more coverage than the chanel.
